Butch
-I roll over on the bed only to find the other side empty and cold. My eyes open slowly and I let out a huff.- Guess I better get my ass up. -My head finds V’s pillow instead and I lay there awhile longer just inhaling the scent with a grin on my face. After a long moment I finally get up enough energy to crawl out of bed, untwisting myself from the mess of blankets and pillows. I stand up and stretch out with a huge yawn. Blurry eyes notice my phone blinking on the nightstand and I pick it up. The grin on my face at seeing a text from V quickly fades when I read the message. Any meeting with his mother couldn’t be a good thing. I checked the time that the text was sent and poke my head out of the room to see if he was back yet.- Oh hell no. Not again. -I went back into the room and dressed quickly, not even bothering to shower or shave. The only redeeming factor in the whole thing was that I actually could tell that he was still around somewhere this time. I had to shake the tension out of my body and force my mind to go numb before I could get a fix on V. My head whipped around in confusion for awhile. He wasn’t that far away, that much I could tell. It took me a moment to remember the night of my induction. I hadn’t been back there since then. I didn’t really have a reason to. The memory of that night flooded back in vivid detail and I had to push it aside or I wasn’t going to get anywhere. I leaned against the bar for a moment feeling V’s fangs sinking into my neck once more. His body pressed close to me with the whisper of something that I thought I would never have. I took a deep breath and stood up straight. I needed to find my stubborn ass male. I walked out of the mansion and followed my senses. Picking up my pace and dodging through trees.-Just an evening jog. No worries. Not like your male is busy self-destructing or nothing. Shoulda taken the Escalade dipshit… -I took off at a full run and receive many branches to the face before I finally get there. Slowing way the hell down, not sure what I’m going to find as I walk down the tunnel-
V
My head lulled back and forth against the hardness supporting it, I looked around at the 4 empty bottles they rolled precariously around me. “ I say we make it an odd 5 “ A slurred smirk drew my lip up some and I tried to take another drink with my mouth set like that, only that, only to find the clear liquid gold slide out of the right side of my mouth. And down my chin “Fuck that wasn’t good “Finally I managed to get the opening of the bottle firmly in my mouth and cocked my head back generously as the fluid flowed down my throat with speed. Dropping my arm down, with more force then I could register, until I heard the glass bust against the ground and the remaining Goose pooling along side my thigh. “Now that shit is sacrilegious “Without thought I laid my hands palm down against the ground and started to push myself up when my hand slipped in the glassy wet mixture and I landed back on my ass. I was on the verge to attempt it when I heard a decent of feet shuffling almost too quietly coming this way. Grabbing up a piece of the broken Goose bottle, I made it up up finally on one hand and knees as I tried to glue myself up against the cold wall and hold the jagged glass steady.
Butch
-My eyes try to adjust to the light of the cavern. I hear glass breaking and I quicken my step somewhat. The smell of alcohol assaults my nose and I groan inwardly. I knew exactly the frame of mind that would cause me to drink that much and I felt a sinking in the pit of my gut. I wasn’t sure what caused this. Whatever the cause, it was bad enough that he didn’t want to do it around me. I stepped into the open room and saw all of the empty bottles on the ground. My shitkickers crunched on the broken shards of glass.-
V
The familiar scent assaulted my nose but in my drunken stupor but all common sense shit was gone and as soon as Butch stepped into my unfocused view, I lunged forward and tried like a crazed dog to stab at Butch’s legs, only to find my mouth eating a shit load of ground and the broken glass flew from my hand as my arms sprawled out from under me and a harsh grunt came out.
Butch
-I almost pissed myself when something came at me from the shadows. I felt like a dumb ass but this place was kinda creepy. My body instinctively stepped to the side but my back was stiff as a board and alive with goosebumps. When my gaze finally came into focus on what the hell was going on, I sank down to the ground next V. Any other night and I might be laughing at his frantic attack.- Nallum… what the hell? -I slowly turned V and cradled his head. Picking out bits and pieces of glass from his skin.- Damn it, V. We are in this together remember?
V
More groans and grunts filled the enclosed darkened cave when Butch rolled me over ” I was going to do that ” I licked my tongue over dirt laden lips and tried to sit up, only to have my head take a nose dive and I landed right back in Butch’s lap. ”I’m all good ” I even threw in a nod or maybe I thought I did. With much concentration, I rolled over and let my arms fall back down and did’t even notice when Butch started trying to clean me off some. ” What you here for ” The last part of your words only slowly slipping into the crevices of my stupor ” Together, you and me, yeah “
Butch
Would you stop trying to get up. You aren’t getting anywhere by yourself right now. That’s for damn sure. -I threw my leg over V’s waist to keep him from going anywhere and turn his face to see if I missed any glass.- Are you going to tell me what this is all about or do I need to guess? -I couldn’t hide the concern from my face as I used my sleeve to wipe the dirt from V’s face and lips.-
V
I opened my eyes long enough to zone in on Butch ” I was thirsty ” A crooked grin split my lips even as your sleeve came down to wipe over my face. Slowly and with a damn lot of effort, I raised my hand up and gripped my fingers in the neck of Butch’s shirt. ” Come on, lay down with me ” A horsed laugh rolls out and I try to yank on Butch’s shirt.
Butch
-My brows furrowed and I fell forward slightly when V pulled on my shirt.- Damn it, V. Shit doesn’t just go away like that and you know it. -My fingers pry V’s from my collar and twine in his hand to keep him from trying that again.- Why couldn’t you have just tied one on back at the Pit? Why all the way out here?
V
My face hardens up and I yank my hand from Butch’s grip and I half roll over and brace my hands on the solid ground beside you. My head whirls like a coaster and I take in a few breaths before I manage to push myself up to my knees and lean back on my feet letting my head hang some a moment, trying to catch a hold of the spinning area. As soon as I raised my eyes up to Butch, I seen the flames surrounding Butch and then the maniacal rough laughter that filled my head was too all consuming and I had to grip my head and before I knew what I was doing, I found the hard ground under me as I rolled into a tight crouched knot, trying to blot out the fire and sounds.
Butch
-I watched in confusion as V stumbled away from me. The look I saw in his eyes spoke to something but I couldn’t place it. My heart damn near fell on the floor when he curled up in a ball. I had no clue how to help him, or what was even wrong in the first place. Feeling fucking useless, I did all that I could do. I crawled over next to him and wrapped my entire body around him.- It’s okay, Nallum. Whatever it is, it will be alright. -It felt fucking stupid to say but I didn’t have anything else to offer.-
V
My eyes slowly opened, the almost black cave made focusing in even more fucked up, the flames were gone and in it’s place was Butch’s body wrapped around me. ”Yeah, guess I’m more fucked up ” I wanted to turn into the heat but instead I pushed myself away and stumbled till I felt the wall and pulled myself up to some kind of semblance of standing ” Let’s go ” I looked down all the shit I had tried to drink away, started to slide back into place and then the last words that Butch said came into play and I knew shit was far from alright, but fuck if I was spilling it. That would be my death sentence from Butch and the brotherhood.
Butch
-I reluctantly let go of V and slowly stood up. Whatever the hell was going on here, it was clear that I wasn’t going to pry it out of him. I bit the shit out of my lip to keep from saying what was really on my mind. I understood secrets and shit. I just didn’t want them between us. This shit was too fresh and I wasn’t going to throw it in the garbage just because I didn’t care for this hidden crap. I eased the tension out of my back and rolled my neck before walking over to V and ducking under his arm to help support him. I didn’t wait for him pull away from me yet again, I grabbed his arm, hooked it over my shoulder and took his waist in my other hand. Lowering my head to watch where my feet were going. I didn’t have shit to say anyway.-
V
I almost arch a brow when Butch leaves me no room to move away , a chuckle even rolled out and I let him lead our way out of the tunnels ” Now look who’s taking care of who ” I tightened my arm over Butch’s shoulder and leaned the majority of my weight on you as I followed Butch lead. I knew the sidestepping of all the questions and that shit that hit me was going to come back when the drunken haze was gone, but fuck I will deal with that then. My stomach knotted and I had to hold back the Goose that wanted to come back up as I thought of hiding stuff from Butch.
Butch
Yeah, I’m solving all your problems. -It was mumbled under my breath but I had to bite through my goddamn lip again to lay off the wise cracks. It was going to be a long trek back to the mansion at this pace. I cursed myself again for not bringing the stupid SUV. Sucking it up, I damn near dragged V through the woods. Following the path that I cut on my way here since it was the most direct and I’d already taken the branches out with my freaking face.-
V
The mumbled words only reaching every other one, I just nod and let you drag, pull me through the semi cleared stretch you Butch had going and I couldn’t help but voice a stupid question ” Butch, where’s the fucking Escalade ?” I tried to shake my head but gave up when I finally caught sight of the Pit’s roof and huffed out a heavy as fuck thank you breath.
Butch
Scuze me if I was more concerned about where the fuck my Male was then securing wheels for your Princely ass. -Squeezing my arm tighter around V- Come on, almost there. Ya aren’t going to toss on me are ya? -Stopping short when I see Bella in the garden- Um… hi there. -Awkwardly shifts V up my hip some- Nice night for a stroll… Anyway… Yeah… Have a good one. -Continuing on and calling over my shoulder- Nice to meet you. Name’s Butch.
V
Half snorts and grumbles ” What fucking ever man, just sayin wheels been nice ” Almost falls forward when you come to a stop and thank fucking goodness for Butch’s hold or I would have ate more ground. I drag my bloodshot diamond eyes up and take a look over at Bella a crooked grin splits my lips ” Water balloon female “
Bella
[startled] Yeah same here. You okay there or could you use an extra set of hands?
Butch
Nope. I’m all good. -flashes a fake smile- Almost there now. Thanks anyway. -waving behind me-
Bella
[waves] Okay good luck.
Butch
Goddamn you are heavier than you look. Come on. One foot in front of the other or I’ll sling you over my shoulder again, so help me I will. -Shaking V a bit to keep him in the game. I prop him against the wall when I get to the door and open it up.-
V
Couldn’t stop the come back that rolled out even if I wanted to ” Yeah and fuck your light weight ass to ” My head raises up and I gesture at the door and see that it’s already open, for a second I thought Butch had discovered a new gift ” No damn way, you opened the bitch without touching it ” Then I realize his hand was on the knob ” Oh fuck that sucks ” Shrugs throwing my arm back over Butch’s shoulders”Take me to bed Nallum, or fuck drown me in a tub. I’m good with either” My head falls over on your shoulder.
Butch
No worries on me goin Houdini up in here. You just get plain ole Butch. -I drag V through the Pit. Groaning when his head falls on my shoulder.- Stop trying to get on my good side, I’m still mad at you. -Kicking the door open to the room and more tossing V on the bed than anything.-
V
Falls back on the bed with a couple bounces up and down and my head doing that are you fucking kidding me thing. I lay there sprawled out with my shitkickers hanging off the bed and look up as best I can ” Be mad tomorrow, I already had one night without you ” Unsteadily as fuck I raise my hand up towards Butch ” Come here, I know I screwed up but fuck I need you “
Butch
-Folding my arms and looking down V- Put yourself in my shoes for one fucking minute here. What the hell would you be thinking? -Moving around the end of the bed and yanking off V’s boots.- Maybe something along the lines of: Your Male isn’t good enough to stick with you through the hard times but he damn sure can take care of me real good afterward. -Chucking the boots against the wall with a loud thud- Whatever ~nallum~ you know I aint going no where so I guess you can do whatever the hell you want. -I pull off your pants with a swift tug and toss the stinking things in the corner. Coming back around the bed and hooking my arm around your back. I lift your torso just enough to take your shirt off and pull the sheet up over you-
V
My arm falls back to the bed when I see the dead set expression on Butch’s face, but the words that came afterwards, were like nails being hammered back into my hand. I was on the verge to protest when Butch started pulling boots and clothes off like a man on a mission. I lay my arms on top of the sheet once Butch pulls it up and I grab your hand “ Look, I get where your coming from but I need some time with this shit, but I do need you more ” Growls out hoarsely in frustration and lets go of your hand ” You don’t have to stay in here, I get that your 5 ways pissed to Sunday, I love you Nallum, no matter what or who that won’t change“
Butch
-When you let go of my hand I instantly lean down and put my hands above your shoulders and get nose to nose with you- I told you that I’m not going anywhere. You didn’t want me through the first half of this shit but you are damn sure getting me through this part. Whether you like it or not. -Staring straight into your eyes and not backing down- But let’s get one thing straight here, I’m damn sure going to expect an explaination somewhere soon that doesn’t involve a lot of ‘You don’t need to know’. -lip curling slightly as I steal your phrase- Feel me?
V
My hands itch to reach up and grip Butch waist when you lean right over me, but damn right now I chose to lay still. I nodded even as my head reeled against the words, but right now all I wanted was to shut my head down and feel Butch again ”Yeah I feel you Butch ” I gave into the urge any way and gripped a hold of Butch’s waist. I licked my dry lips as I locked my eyes on you ” Just know some stuff you might not want to know, or even better off not knowing, but later on all that, I’ve been trying to get my pissed the fuck off male in bed, so can we do that before I black out and start groping the bed and shit ” Bites my lips closed.
Butch
-I shifted slightly off balance due to your hand around my waist but I didn’t waver further. Holding myself over you with locked arms while I listen- I get that whatever this is must be some major shit to have you so tied up in knots and hiding from me. But I didn’t sign up for a part-time job here. I’m not stupid enough to think that you are innocent as the day you were born. Shit, you’ve lived longer than I can even image. So yeah, I get that there’s probably a lot of crap that would probably turn my hair grey. -I didn’t even bother taking off my clothes or boots before climbing up on the bed, straddling your legs- You want your Male right now, you are getting angry sex. -Moving my hand to grab your chin and turning it to the side- And you’d better not fucking puke on me or I’ll make you eat that shit. -I tip my head back to reveal my elongated fangs and I dive on your throat with loud growl. Kicking my foot back to slam the door closed behind us with a loud crash that echoes through the Pit.-
